Jamie Lynn Spears joins old co-stars for Zoey 102 party – after reuniting with sister Britney

Seemingly riding high after rekindling her relationship with sister Britney Spears, Jamie Lynn Spears was all smiles when she slipped into promo mode for her first film role in 15 years.

On Thursday, the actress attended a cocktail party for her upcoming new film Zoey 102 at San Vicente Bungalows in West Hollywood.

The comedy-drama just happens to be a direct sequel to her popular series Zoey 101 that aired on Nickelodeon for four seasons from January 2005 to May 2008.

Spears, who’s reprising her role as Zoey Brooks, was joined by a number of the cast and crew, including co-star Erin Sanders, who slips back into the shoes of Quinn Pensky.

While Victoria Justice is not among the cast to be returning to the roles they played as teenagers, the actress did give a big show of support by attending the promotional event.

Spears, 32, looked lovely in a pink minidress that came complete with a spaghetti-straps and a plunging design, which helped showcase her ample cleavage.

The McComb, Mississippi native also wore a pair of sparkling, golden heels that glistened undr the harsh lights of the cameras.

She accessorized with a matching oink clutch purse, and rounded out her over look by styling her blonde tresses long and flowing down over her chest and down past the middle of her back with plenty of natural waves and a center part.

At a certain point during the event she joined up with Sanders and Justice for a round or tow of photos in front of a promotional backdrop.

Sanders, 32, showed off her fashion sense in a dark blue two-piece set consisting of loose-fitting pants and a matching sleeveless top that tied together in the center.

The Santa Monica native, who starred as Quinn Pensky for all four seasons during the show’s heyday, also wore a pair of light green wrap-around heels.

She had her blonde locks pulled back off her face, with the exception of some strands of hair she left dangling around the frame of her face.

Victoria Justice, who played Lola Martinez for the last three seasons of the series, also went with a two-piece matching ensemble, only hers was multi-colored skirt and crop top combination.

The striking number, featuring red, yellow, green, and a touch of dark blue, offered up more than a hint of her toned abs with the top’s short design.

Rounding out her look, the native of Hollywood, Florida, 30, also donned a apir of brown platform shoes, which gave her an extra couple of inches to her 5ft5in physique.

Along with Justice, some of the other cast members who did not return for the sequel film include Alexa Nikolas, who played Zoey’s roommate and best friend Nicole Bristow; and recent Oscar nominee Austin Butler, who played Zoey’s love interest James Garrett.

Dean Geyer, 37, who plays Todd in the film, was also on hand for the promotional event dressed in a white dress shirt with black pants.

.The cast for the sequel also includes Sean Flynn as Chase Matthews; Paul Butcher as Dustin Brooks; Matthew Underwood as Logan Reese; Abby Wilde as Stacy Dillsen; Christopher Massey as Michael Barret; Jack Salvatore Jr. as Mark Del Figalo; Owen Thiele as Archer March and Thomas Lennon as Kelly Kevyn.

Zoey 102, which comes 15 years after the Zoey 101 series finale, is set to drop on Paramount+ on July 27.

Earlier this week, Jamie Lynn and sister Birtney took steps to repair their seemingly broken relationship.

On Tuesday, the pop superstar, 41, revealed in an Instagram post that she had recently visited with her sister ‘on set last week.

She didn’t specify the project that Jamie Lynn was working on, and it is unclear if the filming was related to her upcoming Zoey 102 movie, which released its first trailer earlier on Tuesday.

Although much of the sisters’ relationship has remained hidden from the public, the two appear to have been feuding in recent years, particularly after the ‘Free Britney’ movement gained a higher profile and Spears succeeded in having her years-long conservatorship ended.

Britney’s sweet family reunion was revealed in the caption of her post, while the video showed her dancing on a boat as she celebrated her first vacation with husband Sam Asghari ‘in a year.’ 

‘It was nice to visit my sister on set last week !!! I’ve missed you guys so much !!!’ Britney gushed at the start of her caption. ‘Loyal girls stay home but it’s so nice to visit family !!!’ 

The video featured Britney showing off her svelte figure in a hot pink bikini while covering her long blond hair with a floppy brown hat. 

She beamed ear to ear while dancing with a pal. In one playful section, she turned around to dance and highlight her derriere while her husband Sam Asghari smoked a cigar, before he gave her a playful slap on her rear end.

‘This is me and Hesam’s first vacation in a year !!!’ she said, using Sam’s full name. ‘I’m so so blessed and l’m gonna play the queen of hearts now !!! Normally that’s Spanish right mamma  !!! Should I do French from now on ??? Latin ??? Portuguese or German ??? Nahh I dunno  because I don’t speak English !!!’ she joked.

The Toxic singer sounded fairly nonchalant about the reunion, which came after she repeated lambasted her sister on social media in recent years.

The sisters were apparently close earlier in the 2000s, when Britney was at the top of her game and Jamie Lynn emerged from her shadow to star on the Nickelodeon show Zoey 101.

The younger star subsequently left her show and took an extended hiatus from acting in 2007, when she announced that she was pregnant at just 16.

As recently as 2017, Britney was joking on social media about what a great time she had when she was with her little sister.

But the two appeared to have reached a breaking point in April of that year, when Britney was awarded the first Icon Award at the 2017 Radio Disney Music Awards.

Jamie Lynn was among the performers paying tribute to her, and she sang an excerpt of her big sister’s single Till The World Ends.

Britney’s smile looks particularly forced in footage of her watching her sister — who was also joined on stage by Hailee Steinfeld, Kelsea Ballerini and Sofia Carson — and she complained years later that she was upset that her sister had performed one of her songs.

‘I don’t like that my sister showed up at an awards show and performed MY SONGS to remixes,’ she complained in a since-deleted post, though it wasn’t clear if her concerns about the remixes were that the original song had been polluted, or that she wanted to perform her own updates of her tunes.

‘My so-called support system hurt me deeply !!!! This conservatorship killed my dreams .. so all I have is hope and hope is the only thing in this world that is very hard to kill … yet people still try,’ she added.

After the Free Britney movement got into full swing later in the decade, Jamie expressed concerns about it in 2019 in a tweet featuring a video of Britney being mobbed by overzealous fans and photographers from years earlier.

’10 years ago, who was there?? I have been here long before anyone else and I’ll be here long after,’ she wrote. ‘I love my sister with everything I have. So anyone or anything that speaks to the contrary can GTFOH with all the comments about what you don’t understand.’

Her defensive post came after some of Britney’s most obsessive fans publicly asked her younger sister to more vociferously defend her in public.

The Free Britney movement wasn’t pleased a year later, when Jamie Lynn was reported to be a trustee to Britney’s estate by the Los Angeles Times.

At the time, she had publicly revealed herself to be a trustee in a court filing requesting that some of Britney’s vast fortune be moved into accounts that she would oversee, which could later only be moved with a judge’s sign off.

However, Jamie Lynn later claimed that she was not on ‘the payroll.’

The tensions between the sister were impossible to ignore after Britney’s conservatorship hearing on June 24, 2021, in which she said that she never knew she could ask to end her conservatorship.

She also made the shocking claim that the conservatorship wasn’t allowing her to get married to her partner Sam Asghari, and she also accused the arrangement of preventing her from having children with him. She claimed that she was not allowed to have an IUD contraceptive removed in order to get pregnant.

Britney seemed to point fingers at her family, and though she didn’t explicitly single out her sister, she didn’t do anything to separate her from her mother Lynne and father Jamie Spears, both of whom she had publicly feuded with.

‘Anyone involved in this conservatorship, and my management who played a huge role in punishing me [should] be in jail,’ Spears said during the hearing. ‘And I would honestly like to sue my family, to be totally honest with you.’

The sisters went on to snipe at each other on social media throughout the rest of the year, and the passive-aggressive posts only got worse after news broke that Jamie Lynn was set to release a memoir, which initially was titled I Must Confess, which referenced Britney’s mega-hit …Baby One More Time.

The two largely stopped referring to each other throughout much of 2022, and Britney only referenced Jamie Lynn in December of last year with a seemingly conciliatory Instagram post for her 41st birthday.

‘It’s my b-day but you’re my heart so I’m thinking about you,’ she wrote while posting two photos of Jamie Lynn. ‘Congratulations on being so brave, inspiring, and showing guts and glory in your show !!! You ain’t alone … if anybody knows what that feels like … I get it. My baby sister !!! I love you !!!’

It’s unclear what happened between the sisters during the past year to change Britney’s tone, but Britney’s recent reunion and reconciliation with her mother Lynne Spears may have helped.

Earlier this week, a source revealed to DailyMail.com that Lynne had been urging her oldest daughter to bury the hatchet with Jamie Lynn.

‘Lynne is begging Britney to make amends with her sister Jamie Lynn now,’ the insider shared. ‘They are both leaning towards a yes. Lynne knows that Britney does miss her sister and she told her that the feeling is obviously mutual.’

But, the source added, it’s going to take some convincing to bring Britney around to the idea of a truce with her estranged sister — and an apology from Jamie Lynn.  

‘Britney still feels that Jamie Lynn is the one who messed up and, if they are going to meet, she would need to come to her and not vise versa,’ the source revealed, adding: ‘Lynne is figuring out now how to make this happen, but she is not going to rest until everything is perfect again.’ 

After three years of estrangement, Lynne flew from Kentwood, Louisiana, to Los Angeles in May to pay a surprise visit to Britney at her home in Thousand Oaks. 

The stage mom’s efforts proved to be worth it, as they sat down for 30 minutes and were able to hash out their issues and undue the damage that was caused by the horrific 13-year conservatorship that Britney was forced into by her father, Jamie Spears, 70.

The insider said that Britney and Lynne ‘have been in constant communication since.’

A separate source close to the situation tells DailyMail.com that — although Lynne is determined to reunite her girls — she is trying her best to ease into the situation by taking it one day at a time. 

‘Lynne knows that it still will take time to get back on the same page and fall into all the right places their relationship needs to be. 

‘But she loves Britney more than anything and clearing up the wounds of the past is something she has strived to achieve for a long time,’ the family confidante added. 

‘Lynne also understands that there is more of a process to go through, but she is showing 100 percent effort to make sure that her own relationship with Britney continues to strengthen. 

‘With all of the drama that they have dealt with in the last couple of years with each other, Lynne’s recent meeting with Britney was a promising step in the right direction for better days ahead,’ the insider told DailyMail.com. 

On November 12, 2021, Britney was freed from a 13-year conservatorship that she was placed in by her father Jamie, 70 —  who, she claims, mentally and emotionally abused her for financial gain.
